“What some bad leaders who take the name of the Medical College are doing is ridiculous, today it has been evidenced that the intention of these bad leaders is absolutely political”, the minister denounced.

Auza assured in a press conference that these people “are not interested in the items (positions), the hospitals, the nurses, the doctors and even less in the health of Bolivians”.

The minister confirmed that salary discounts will be applied to those who comply with the measure which, according to him, lacks legitimate and vindicatory support.

Auza recalled that the same people who are now using the health of the people as a pretext conspired in 2020 to take over this institution during the de facto government.

He added that at that stage they perpetuated one of the most grotesque acts of corruption, “stealing the resources of Bolivians” in the purchase of respirators.
